I would like to compliment one of the concierge. Her name is Deana or Diana or Dana (sorry I really tied to read her badge) she’s filipino that I know. She was very helpful and easy to talk to regarding our needs and requests. She’s an assett to that hotel.

The kids loved the skating rink right outside. Excellent breakfast buffe. Helpful staff and very clean. Parking was unfortunately expensive and not super convenient. Quick and easy dinner options at night are very limited. We resorted to foodora delivery.

The location is excellent. We were close to any number of public transportation lines, shopping, restaurants and museums. The National Theater train station is a much shorter walk to the hotel than Oslo Central Station so getting there with luggage was a breeze. The Central station is a 10 minute walk away so if you need to use that station you will not have a problem. The The staff was super friendly and helpful. We would definitely stay here again.

The hotel is located in the best area with a short walk to many restaurants and public transit stations. Room was very modern, clean and bed was comfortable. The breakfast buffet had a great selection. You will not regret booking this hotel, it's great!
